O, What Fun It Is to Ride in a Crazy Election Year

So I'll watch for changes in political weather by keeping an eye on my BARAMAter, while I sip a cup of JOE, BIDEN my time until election day. I'm gonna nickname the governor from Alaska Spitfire or Spark Plug because it seems fitting. Spark Plug goes with her initials. She is impressive, but I gotta say, when she stands next to McCain, it looks like "Take Your Daughter to Work Day." I have heard some amazing speeches this week. I'm waiting to hear what happens in Minnesota later on. I am pleased with the Obama/Biden option so far, and depending on further investigation of the platform details, I plan to happily vote Democrat in November. So, this registered Independent is boldly weighing in amongst the relatives who may be mainly Republican. [Sorry if I embarrass you, Mom.]

    Me too: sorry mom. I'm voting for change, hope and the middle class as well as a more aggressive attitude toward alternative energies.

    I have never felt sexist, but if I have a five month old downs syndrom child I am not sure I would commit to spending the next three months and if I won the next four years working ninty to a hundred hours a week. Maybe I am more of a "family" person than I thought.

    Those are some interesting thoughts. I am really interested in alternative energy--that's why I take my vitamins. Moose burger anyone?

    Steve -
    Well stated. Had similar thoughts/questions. I might be more of a "family person," too.
